Re: JB Cornwell

Hi, Seajay. I have bumped your earlier post up to the top to try to keep the storyline together.<br /><br />Is the engine starting properly now?<br /><br />Starting procedure, to confirm, is:<br />Open fuel tank vent on cap.<br />Pump primer bulb until firm.<br />Set choke full ON.<br />Try starting one or two pulls.<br />Move choke to half ON, whether it has started or not.<br />Retry until it starts.<br />Keep choke at half ON until engine starts to load up, then choke to OFF.<br />Go Fishin!<br /><br />Good luck.<br /><br />Red sky at night. . .<br />JB :)
